Miguel Angel

Miguel, 38, has been growing corn and sorghum for several years. He is a responsible, hard-working man who lives in his own house with his wife and children. The income he is able to earn is to cover household expenses, so he is requesting a loan to buy everything he needs for planting, such as fertilizers, seeds, etc. He has a good clientele and wants to continue with his crop growing in order to earn more profit and continue giving his family everything they need.
